Meeting Description:

The conference’s aim is to investigate the multiplicity of meanings
that the notion of memory can be seen to convey from a literary,
linguistic, and philological point of view. What do we mean exactly
when speaking of memory? Is reductio ad unum possible when dealing
with such semantically differentiated concepts as retention,
remembrance, recollection, recalling, and post-memory? How substantial
are the differences between collective and individual memory? How do
the mechanisms of memory reverberate on the structures and changes of
linguistic systems? And how does human memory differ from the
computational memories that are progressively gaining ground in the
era of Big Data? Taking its cue from these issues, the conference
intends to contribute to the debate on memory’s multiple connotations.
Space will also be devoted to the interconnections between the
language, writing, traditions and conceptualizations concerning
memory, and to the ways the ‘phenomenologies of memory’ can be
examined through the methodologies of linguistics, philological
analysis, and literary criticism.

Call for Papers:

PhD students are invited to send their proposals on the following
subjects (or similar/related themes):

-       Literature: individual/collective memory, explicit/implicit
memory, prospective memory and post-memory, Trauma studies,
autobiographical, biographical and historical/documentary writing,
reconstructive memory and identity.
-       Linguistics: the mechanisms of memory and the structures of
language from a synchronic and diachronic perspective; writing and
metalinguistic canons; the role of memory in the acquisition and
learning of language and in language disorders; artificial memories
and  computational linguistics.
-       Philology: authorial philology, Digital editions, memory
transmission through texts, reconstructions of historical memory, the
importance of memory for textual transmission.

PhD students who wish to participate must submit an abstract of 2,000
characters (including spaces and with a further section containing a
Reference List). Please remember that abstracts should be accompanied

Abstract contributions will be evaluated by a scientific committee and
accepted authors will be notified by June 2, 2024. A selection of the
Conference papers will be published in the academic book series ILLA –
Nuove Ricerche Umanistiche (Pisa University Press).
